This event will be offered online only. Please register to receive a link.

Four week class series - Oct 7, 14, 21 and 28

Ridding ourselves of the delusion of limitation is the essential step for any true spiritual seeker. Courage, calmness and confidence are the secrets to dealing with any difficulty life sends.

Everyone can be courageous, calm, and confident, because these are qualities of the soul.

Through the words of Paramhansa Yogananda, we will learn how to:

  • Access powerful soul qualities

  • Overcome the great obstacles of worry, fear, nervousness, and anger

  • Attune to the Divine within through concentration and meditation

  • Use scientific healing affirmations to transform your thinking and your experience of life

The soul has everything it needs to meet every test of life. As you live in tune with the power of your soul, your life will be completely transformed.
